Mav sold me on never wanting to camp in a floating tent 😂

Mav is quite simply the coolest man in the world. Even when things seem sketchy. He flashes that smile and rides it out. You’re amazing and we all thank you for this content.

Going down some rapids in the floating tent would take Mav to a whole new level.

Your motto has been getting me through these tough months as of lately. I know it's something small but it's a great affirmation to live by when you are feeling down. My usual motto is "just keep swimming" but lately I've been saying, "keep on trucking" and I've been doing just that! Thanks Mav. Stay safe out there

I would love to see this in action with Steve and Crazy Neighbor when/if they do their week long river trip again. Thanks for another great video!

What a wonderful friend you have there Mav. He's waiting by himself in case anything goes south. He has my appreciation.

I was so worried about you doing the floating tent, but when you said your friend was there, I was relieved. It's great that while you have the most unique adventures, you think about safety as well!

I think it's a cool idea, but my biggest problem with it is the the door. If you want to keep insects out you need to close it, but if you do and the thing somehow flips over you could be in trouble, even if it's still floating. I know it's not the most likely thing to happen, but it's a possibility nonetheless and that'd be too much for me if I'm on the water.

It's a bad design top to bottom. First, the flotation section should have multiple air chambers to prevent it from sinking if one encounters a sharp rock/stick/fishing hook. Second - bad window design. Who puts windows in a tent anyway? Third, it needs a more rigid floor, like a folding multi-panel thing. It could also use a few inflatable sections in the bottom to isolate you from cold water. Fourth, no screens on the openings. Sure not worth $600 to put your life at risk.

The Gatorade bottle. What I like to refer to in my work van as 'The executive restroom'.

The floating tents like this one that ive priced out also come with floating dock that goes inside the tent. gives more support for youself and any gear you have inside the tent with you.

There's no way I would actually sleep well in that death trap lmao

oh, floating tent on the water! what a lovely video to watch, Mav your channel is always my inspiration, keep up the good work brother! ❤

Hey Mav, I'd highly recommend the Nemo Fillo fior a camping pillow! it packs a bit larger than the others but is so so comfortable and I can't imagine using anything else anymore

Concerned that if you were asleep and it began to sink you could be trapped and unable to get out and die. Maybe a razor knife on a lanyard around your neck just in case. Or just don’t use it!

Mav it. So nice to see you livin your dream. Thanks for sharing ❤

Good afternoon. I was very pleased with the video. The inflatable house can be used both on the water and on land, conveniently and comfortably. Thank you Mav and as always you are super!!! The lake is very beautiful. Hugs to you!!!!😍💓💓💓💋

I'd like to see you camp on land in it, maybe do your own design since this one had major issues!! Looks fun, I think good for early morning fishing 🎣 then napping 😂

Thank you for all your hard work Mav. Appreciate the entertainment over the years!

Hey Mav, not even sure if you read these or not, just wanted to say I love your content. As someone who has never been "outdoorsy" or camper, or fisher you make everything seem so fun and interesting. You've peaked my interest on doing these things after years of never even thinking about doing something like this. Thank you for all the awesome content. I do have a question/content idea if it's something you'd be interested in. What if you did a video, maybe even a series, of you maybe taking a new person or fan who has never gone camping/fishing and take them out on a trip and show them the ropes? I'd absolutely love to experience something like this so I'd definitely volunteer! There is so many things I'd love to try, especially something winter/ice fishing!

The Tent ⛺ LOOKS cool! 👍

Time-lapse of the tent on water would of been cool to see how it moved with the anchors

Good job Mav! I watch all your videos, keep up the good work!

You're amazing, Mav! Kind of the thinking man's risk-taker! A fun watch!

That is the prettiest lake especially with the sunset. I would love a cabin right there. Nice video Mav. Though it wasn’t the best night sleep glad you didn’t end up in the water.

Good show, Mav ! Thank you for the entertainment ! 👍

It looks like a floating bounce house. 😂

Hey Mav. This is relaxing & very cool. When you come out there on the water in this ⛺ You definitely just chill.. I agree with the scared to light fire in there. Whoa! The ventilation is low! Do Enjoy, & keep on Trucking Mav.. ❤️😙🐞

I bet that idea looked soo good on paper 😊 Bravo Mav !

Well Mav, you've done it again. You came up with yet another unique way to camp. Keeps us curious as to what you will come up with next. Maybe camping on a signal buoy out on the Great Lakes? Keep them coming Mav.

Mav always comes up with great camping ideas.

thankyou for uploading early for the people from Europe!

Makes me appreciate Steve's and Crazy Neighbor's homemade pontoon boat even more. I'd feel much more secure when it comes to cooking and sleeping and navigating. Interesting experiment though.

some kind of "peice together" flooring, I think, would be ideal. It's just something to give you a little more confidence with that tent. All in all, it seems like that is a product that you get what you pay for. With every floating section being connected means that one pin hole can ruin the whole trip. It needs to be constructed like one of those rental bounce house companies, and then I would have a bit of confidence in it.

Like maybe if they put a huge square of like cork or surfboard floating stuff under the membrane, that would be so much safer and screens of course and easy exits as well.

I can *smell the inside of that new tent just from watching this video 😆

Great video! I like to see you mention some of the precautions you take, your buddy camping near by. Might save some one that decides to try these types of things.

@Mav I have experience with a lot of inflatable furniture and accessories. What you should have done was get a sheet of plywood and line the bottom of the tent so you had a hard surface to stand on, and walk on, and also place your mattress and everything else on, and it would be level. Next time that's what you should do.

This was a great video Mav. This is just a idea and not me trying to tell you what to do. It probably would work if you cook while you stay in the tent and pull your kayak around and putting some type of board on it or something like that. That’s if you do decide to do this again. Which I hope you do. Much love and support. God bless you on any endeavor you take on.

The city I live in here in Ohio has floating tents on the river during the summer that you can rent out and stay in. They look similar to the one you bought but they are hand made locally by a fly fishing float business. I've never tried them out but I bet they are neat. The business is called Smith Fly

I like this!! It was different to see a floating tent
